Illinois ?!

Syracuse?

 

[OrlandoCuse]

we will get a quality big. I am sure of it. Whether it’s Hd, cisse, or someone else.

I will say - I have heard Red doesn’t feel his offense needs a “traditional” big.

Sure, but his defense sure as hell needs rebounding and right now our roster might be the worst rebounding team to play D1 basketball.

 

[Jake]

It's time for him to move on. He'll be 24 at the end of next season.

His greatest earning power right now is NIL. I’m not sure he gets a G league deal.

And probably much less valuable than he would have have been coming off his second year at SU with much better numbers

 

[Jake]

So I’m curious about the ND big. He knows where he’s going and Red was just in South Bend.

Wonder if JJ is a go-between and we’re going stealth again.

North Texas kid might know we have our guy and took the sure thing at Xavier.

I have NO IDEA if this is the case, but it makes some logical, reading the tea leaves kinda sense.

Yep someone else mentioned this after I posted his announcement. I really like his game and he plays much bigger than 6-8 including showing shot blocking ability. Good size too- strong kid and athlete. His per 40 14/10 and 1.8b

Could be? Someone also I think mentioned on here the possibility of going to see Cisse and made a stop to see JJ on the way? Red does seem to be working in stealth mode...kinda like it!

1000 pct with stealth mode... even though it ages even more us as fans

 

[Jake]

Stealth is the way to go at Cuse. As Hop used to say….”you want to be the hunter, not the hunted…”

 

[Cuse4455]

No contact also means a player doesn't want colleges to reach out. But instead he will reach out to teams he's interested in.

what ND guy?

 

[hoopsupstate]

Which means he knows where he’s going.

 

[OmahaCuse]

The advantage of Red being younger and having the energy is huge advantage in recruiting IMO.

 

[rrlbees]

what ND guy?

Ven-Allen Lubin

 

[dasher]

Ven-Allen Lubin

Well, this could be a sign of my old age but I don't remember this kid. And I don't remember being
all that impressed with any ND big.

 

[Cuse4455]

Which means he knows where he’s going.

Well yeah but it could also mean he has multiple teams and he only wants contact with those specific teams.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Yep which is great. I liked the nugget he dropped in the Rothstein interview in how he talks to Judah nearly every day as well.

He also said he wants a center and another guard, maybe two. Implying that even if Judah returns, he probably still wants a 3 pt shooter for the 2G.

He didn't play a ton of minutes but was impressive when he did that I saw.

 

[IthacaMatt]

Shoot, I disagree. I’d take him back in a heartbeat

Yeah, but he's not that guy he was freshman year anymore. He stopped being that guy his sophomore year toward the end of the year, when he stopped going inside and fell in love with the three.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

To be fair, 99.9% of the coaches in college basketball were younger than JB.

 

[Orangezoo]

 

[TheHaze315]

Ha, funny small world thing, I'm pretty sure I actually know that Dennis guy.

Believe he’s a teacher at CNS

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Yeah, but he's not that guy he was freshman year anymore. He stopped being that guy his sophomore year toward the end of the year, when he stopped going inside and fell in love with the three.

That’s coaching. Same thing Knicks are doing with Obi. Asking him to do things he shouldn’t be: shooting the 3 and no post-ups. I’d welcome him back.

Lubin plays bigger than 6'8".
